Ions are stable atoms of elements formed when original atoms loose or gain electrons to form stable configuration. Anions are negatively charged ions formed when atoms gain electrons while cations are the positively charged ions formed when atoms loose electrons. In this case a charge of +1 means an atom lost one electron to form a stable configuration. Therefore, the correct answer is A

If I am referring to correct picture then
A. Has Four atoms in outer ring
B. Has Five atoms in outer ring
C. Has Six atoms in outer ring
D. Has Seven atoms in outer ring
E. Has Eight atoms in outer ring
Answer is A
Now we know that an atom wants to complete its outer shell while keeping electrons in pairs of two now in A there are four electrons which which can be ejected while in B will want to accept 3 electrons to complete its shell as ejecting five will take lot of energy similar case will be for C,D and E which would want to accept 2,1,0 electrons respectively

A 58.5 g sample of glass is put into a calorimeter (see sketch at right) that contains 250.0 g of water. The glass sample starts

Ket [755]

Answer:

The specific heat capacity of glass is 0.70J/g°C

Explanation:

Heat lost by glass = heat gained by water

Heat lost by glass = mass × specific heat capacity (c) × (final temperature - initial temperature) = 58.5×c×(91.2 - 21.7) = 4065.75c

Heat gained by water = mass × specific heat capacity × (final temperature - initial temperature) = 250×4.2×(21.7 - 19) = 2835

4065.75c = 2835

c = 2835/4065.75 = 0.70J/g°C

In which of the following equilibrium systems will an increase in the volume cause the equilibrium to shift away from the reacta

Alenkinab [10]

Answer: 2NOBr(g) ⇌ 2NO(g) + Br2(g)

Explanation: For volume changes in equillibrium, the following are to be taken into consideration:

Volume changes have no effect on equillibrium system that contains solid or aqueous solutions.
An increase in volume of an equilibrium system will shift to favor the direction that produces more moles of gas.
A decrease in volume of an equilibrium system will shift to favor the direction that produces less moles of gas.
Volume changes will have no effect on the equillibrium system if there is an equal number of moles on both sides of the reaction.

2NOBr(g) ⇌ 2NO(g) + Br2(g) is the equillibrium system because there are more moles of products,therefore an increase in the volume of the reaction will shift to the right and produce more moles of products. Also both reactants and products exist in the gaseous state and does not have equal number of moles.

Which statement is true about water molecules?

Arte-miy333 [17]

1. The correct option is A, THE OXYGEN ATOM HAS A NEGATIVE CHARGE. A water molecule is made up of two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen. The molecules of water are arranged in such a way that, the negative hydrogen atom is attracted to the positive hydrogen atom and the overall structure is bent. Because oxygen is more electronegative than hydrogen, oxygen atom draws the shared electrons toward itself , this gives the oxygen end of the molecule a partial negative charge and the hydrogen end, a partial positive charge.

2. The correct option is: WITHOUT THE PROPER BALANCE OF WATER, CHEMICAL REACTIONS WILL NOT TAKE PLACE. Metabolic chemical reactions take place in living cells all the time because water, which is a necessary condition for the reaction is in place. Th fluids find in the cells are mostly water; water creates suitable conditions for biochemical reactions to take place. Without water, the cells will not be able to carry out any chemical reaction.

3. The correct option is A. Hydrogen bond allows oxygen and water molecules to be bonded together. Hydrogen bonds are weak interactions that formed between the hydrogen with a patial positive end and oxygen with a patial negative end. The hydrogen bond in water is responsible for the unique properties associated with water.
